PDF Merger

This tool accepts multiple PDFs, allows explicit input ordering, and outputs one consolidated PDF. It preserves bookmarks, outlines, and metadata when available, and can apply per-file page ranges to include only selected pages. It supports password-protected inputs by accepting passwords for protected files. The core workflow validates inputs, applies ordering, merges content, and writes the final document. It does not edit content or perform OCR. This yields a single reusable file suitable for distribution, filing, or archival. Typical use cases include compiling contract bundles, research PDFs, or course packs from separate sources, enabling simpler sharing and reduced file fragmentation. The merging logic is designed to be robust against minor input inconsistencies and provides a per-file status report to aid error handling and auditing. Advanced options may include enabling PDF/A compatibility or adjusting output compression if the target workflow requires stricter archival standards or reduced file size.
